Trusted voice - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone with a rooted N6 received that trusted voice security feature? I've haven't seen it on my phone since it became available, but it shows up on my brother's N5 (unrooted)

wwll, it probably will not be a n6 setting, since the n6 generally already has "trusted voice".

Ok, but there's no option to unlock the phone by saying "ok Google". That's what trusted voice mainly does

Never heard of it, haven't got it.

Face unlock on 5.0.1

I've seen random people say that face unlock is fixed on the 5.0.1 ota, previous versions were too dark to recognize your face. I'm on 5.0.1 but I'm still having the dark screen bug. Can anyone confirm whether the update really fixed it or not? If it did, does anyone have tips for making mine work correctly?
Sent from my Nexus 6
Its not fixed on mine
I can confirm, T-Mobile 64 update has resolve the problem. Now just need a better camera app.
Not fixed on mine either! UK 5.0.1 side loaded decrypted and rooted
Why did you guys telling that Face unlock should be fixed yet?
I mean, Do you have that option available in your device?
I don't have that option in my Nexus 6..

I'm not so sure that this is a bug with the face lock, as it is that the front facing camera is very weak at low brightness.

No. After you set a regular screen lock, go to the security settings and you'll see "smart lock" under Owner Info. Click that and you'll see the trusted faces option.

No problem. You can set it up in multiple lighting situations to try to get a better read, but basically if its a little dark wherever you are, it's not working.

It doesn't work the way it used to on KitKat which is why they have it set up differently in the settings. It will start looking for your face as soon as you turn the screen on, if it recognizes you before you swipe up to unlock the device, you won't have to input the pattern. If it doesn't recognize you by then, then it simply shows you the pattern pad to unlock. The only indication you have of it working is the bottom center icon. It will show a user icon when it's attempting to detect your face, and will switch back to a padlock when its done.

its called google now. enable it, turn on all the options.. then, when the phones screen is off, unplugged or plugged in, say ok google, and itll wake your device up. if thats not what you meant, the nexus 6 doesnt have any other way to unlock your phone with voice. oh, btw, questions go into the q&a section, not into general.
My google now is enable but I can't see and voice unlock feature on my smart lock list . ?

I think you mean trusted voice. We have been discussing it here:

However, it seems Google may have stopped the roll out due to issues.

Can't setup as new device

Hey folks
I'm having trouble setting up my Nexus 6 as a new device.
I am on the developer preview 3 and I have tried both logging out of my google account and factory resetting. I have also reflashed the preview that that would work.
However all I can do is restore from a backup but I want to setup as a new device. I can select it from the drop down menu which is weird but it won't allow me to select done.
Is this some sort of Android 6.0 feature?
Thanks for any help.

You need to remove your Google account before Factory Reset. That feature is in place since 5.1.
I thought that And have tried that but it still doesn't work.

Haha that's on the list of things I've tried thinking I'd finally outfoxed it but that didn't work either.
I've logged into my google account and deleted all my previous backups but they still show up. Arrrghhhh

Not trying to be smart or say you didn't do it right, but I had the same issue several times and always just needed to turn to landscape and then hit the button. Just doesn't detect or something in portrait. I'd try again and just tap around in that area.

Maybe tonight, now that Snapchat is working on M again I'll probably be going back. Not sure if it's an M issue, but happens every time for me on JDX 3, little arrow button does nothing in portrait, but works in landscape; not sure how I can show it but I'll try

No not at all thanks for the suggestion. It doesn't work in landscape either.

Yeah it's not really something you can screenshot because the button is there it's just not clickable.

I've had that happen after flashing roms/gapps a few times. What I eventually did was skip the sign in, and sign into my Google account after the initial setup.

VOLTE(Calling plus) Working on Sprint Note 8.

So, I downloaded n app called shortcut master lite cuz I member here on XDA recommended it to fix LTE issues. Don't know of his name but I will edit with his name for credit. But I turned advanced LTE on(u must search for it).Did not notice any difference in LTE. Tried it initially but did not have VOLTE while making outgoing call. But when a call comes in and I answer LTE stays connected. So I went back into the shortcut app and looked up LTE Functionality. Found a setting in there which says VOLTE Test UI then in that setting I turned on the first 2 options which then have me VOLTE both on incoming and outgoing calls. Not sure if it breaks anything but I have mine off cuz not sure if it breaks anything.

Oh I see now. U need the LTEFunctionality Test. The VOLTE Test UI is in this one.
Since i just woke up and can't go back to sleep lol...
I tested this by calling local pizza places (closed) while simultaneously using chrome in a double window and it was working.

---------- Post added at 12:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 PM ----------
so for better instructions to ppl,
1)use short cut master
2)Search for enhancedlteservices (should be com.android.phone.EnhancedLteServices)
3)Launch it and enable Enhanced LTE Services.
4)Next go to com.test.LTEfunctionality and launch LTEFunctionalityTest
5)Go to VoLTE Test UI and Enable first 2 settings to on
6)Extra precaution, restart phone
In no way i'm taking credit for finding this out. just made the steps more simple. Thanks OP for posting this. Please use at your own discretion. I don't know if this will screw up anything but i'm getting both voice and data at same time.

Getting GH to say something after zwave switch turned on

I know I can get google home to say a phrase if I say something like "OK Google turn on bathroom Lights" then I can get Google to say "yes sir right away" or whatever but can I first turn on a light (Smartthings connected hub and a Zwave switch) and get Google to say something then
Thanks

You might be able to set something like this up through IFTTT but there is no native support for this feature.

Go into settings, more settings, shortcuts, then in the when I say section type turn on the bedroom lights and other ways to say that. Then what the Google assistant should do section type this all as one sentence. Turn off the bedroom light and repeat after me, yes sir, turning off the bedroom light.
